Quirk Books, January 17, 2012
Image and Description from Amazon: When Evelyn Morgan walked into the village bookstore, she didn’t know
she would meet the love of her life. When Brendan Thorne handed her a
medieval romance, he didn’t know it would change the course of his
future. It was almost as if they were the cursed lovers in the old book
itself . . .The Thorn and the Blossom is a remarkable literary artifact: You can open the book in either direction to decide whether you’ll first read Brendan’s, or Evelyn’s account of the mysterious love affair. Choose a side, read it like a regular novel—and when you get to the end, you’ll find yourself at a whole new beginning.
It's only 82 pages, but I don't care. It looks gorgeous and something right up my alley.

Wow, this sounds really interesting! I'm going to have to look into this one for sure. :)
ReplyDeleteI so LOVE that you continue to inspire and amaze me. I, too, look forward to reading this two-sided story.
ReplyDelete@Misty I know! And this is why e-Readers will never be able to be the only way we read. You couldn't really capture the format and loveliness of this book any other way.
